## About

```text
At Veeam Software, I resolved business-critical backup failures across VMware vSphere, Microsoft Hyper-V, and other hypervisor environments. I also designed and validated disaster recovery failover sequences against corporate RTO and RPO requirements.

I received the 2025 Veeam Excellence Trailblazer title for maintaining 100% SLA compliance with zero timeouts. As a senior escalation point, I helped peers resolve complex infrastructure issues and supported onboarding and mentorship for new engineers.

At HCL Technologies & CA Technologies, I led implementation and customization of Broadcom NetOps solutions for enterprise clients, including deployments and support for projects such as COGECO Connexion and BNP Paribas. Earlier, I worked in network support and operations at Fortinet and AT&T Network Services, troubleshooting enterprise and carrier-network issues.
